US President Barack Obama issued Executive Order 13642-Making Open and Machine Readable the New Default for Government - on May, 9 2013, mandating, wherever legally permissible and possible, that US Government information be made open to the public.[1] This edict accelerated the construction of and framework for data repositories, and data citation principles and practices, such as data.gov. As a corollary, researchers across the country's national laboratories found themselves creating data management plans, applying data set metadata standards, and ensuring the long-term access of data for federally funded scientific research.
